This is a major achievement because, in relative terms, planets are very small and old not emit light. Finding planets is proving hard enough, but finding life on them will prove infinitely more difficult. The first question to answer is whether a planet can actually support life. In our won solar system, for example, Venus is far too hot and Mars is far too cold to support life. Only the Earth provides ideal conditions, and even here it has taken more than four billion years for plant and animal life to evolve. Whether a planet can support life depends on the size and brightness of its star, that is its 'sun'. Imagine a star up to twenty times larger, brighter, brighter and hotter than our own sun. A planet would have to be a very long way from it to be capable of supporting life. Alternatively, if the star were small, the life-supporting planet would have to have a close orbit round it and also provide the perfect conditions for life forms to develop. But how would we find such a planet? At present, there is no telescope in existence that is capable of detecting the presence of life. The development of such a telescope will be one of the great astronomical projects of the twenty-first century. It is impossible to look for life on another planet using earth-based telescopes. Our own warm atmosphere and the heat generated by the telescope would make it impossible to detect objects as small as planets. Even a telescope in orbit round the earth, like the very successful Hubble telescope, would not be suitable because of the dust particles iron solar system. A telescope would have to be as far away as the planet Jupiter to look for life in outer space, because the dust becomes thinner the further we travel towards the outer edges of our own solar system. Once we detected a planet, we would have to find a way of blotting out the light from its star, so that we would be able to 'see' the planet properly and analyze its atmosphere. In the first instance, we would be looking for plant life, rather than 'little green men'. The life forms most likely to develop on a planet would be bacteria. It is bacteria that have generated the oxygen we breathe on earth. For most of the earth's history they have been the only form of life on our planet. As Earth-dwellers, we always cherish the hope that we will be visited by little green men and that we will be able to communicate with them. But this hope is always in the realms of science fiction. If we were able to discover lowly forms of life like bacteria on another planet, it would completely change our view of ourselves. As Daniel Goldin of NASA observed, 'Finding life elsewhere would change everything. No human endeavor or thought would be unchanged by it." 【课⽂翻译】天⽂学⽅⾯最新发展使得我们能够在银河系和其他星系发现⾏星。

新概念英语第三册的课文 (56)

We have special river birthday parties in the summer. Sometimes were go upstream to a favourite backwater, sometimes we have our party at the boathouse, which a predecessor of ours at the farm built in the meadow hard by the deepest pool for swimming and diving. In a heat wave we choose a midnight birthday party and that is the most exciting of all. We welcome the seasons by the riverside, crowning the youngest girl with flowers in the spring, holding a summer festival on Midsummer Eve, giving thanks for the harvest in the autumn, and throwing a holy wreath into the current in the winter.
The river which forms the eastern boundary of our farm has always played an important part in our lives. Without it we could not make a living. There is only enough spring water to supply the needs of the houses, so we have to pump from the river for farm use. We tell river all our secrets. We know instinctively, just as beekeepers with their bees, that misfortune might overtake us if the important events of our lives were not related to it.

Lesson 56 Our neighbor , the riverKey to CompositionA possible answerPlan and ideas for composition (b)Title: A dark and gloomy streetIntroduction: Dark and gloomy street — on way home from party — short cut Development: Someone standing at far end, under lamplight — wasn't frightened — felt person did not mean to harm me — not sure what to do — decided to walk on towards the lightThe "guide" started walking ahead of me — dressed in long gown — dim glow— felt safe and followed — part of town, I realized, that I had been warned about — but nothing happened to me — and near bright lights — "guide" just disap-pearedConclusion: A young person killed that night — was the guide my guardian angel? CompositionIt was a dark and gloomy street. 1 was on my way home from a friend's party and had deckled to take a short cut. I had just turned the corner from the main street and had started walking towards the light at the end of the short street.Suddenly, almost by magic, I thought, there was someone standing at the far end, under the lamplight. Most people would have been frightened, perhaps terrified. I wasn't at all frightened. Perhaps I should have been. There was someone there. I felt somehow that the person — and I couldn't see whether it was a man or a woman — did not mean to harm me. Although I wasn't frightened, I still wasn't sure what to do. Should I walk on towards the end of the street and towards the light and towards the person? or should I go back the way I had come? I decided to walk on towards the light.The "guide", as I called the person later, stood and seemed to wait until I was halfway down the street, and then started walking ahead of me. Even now I couldn't describe him or her: he or she seemed to be dressed in a long gown, but there was a dim glow all around him/her. Certainly I felt safe and followed the person down several streets that I did not know. It was a part of town, I realized, that I had been warned about — but nothing happened tome — and as soon as we were near the bright lights of the main road, my "guide" just disappeared.The following day I heard that a young person had been killed walking home alone not very far from where I was that night. I don't care what other people think. I am sure that the "guide" was my guardian angel and that he or she looked after me. (317 xuords)Lesson 57 Back in the old countryKey to CompositionA possible answerPlan and ideas for composition (a)Title: My ideal houseIntroduction: The house I would like to own—hometown — magnificent mansion Development: Once visited it — owner held exhibition of sculptures and paintings in house —visitors had chance to see house Large heavy green front door;— large entrance hall — marble floor — large open staircase to first floor — large dining room and large sitting room — both look out onto front lawn — peacocks — oak treesBack of house -—kitchen, a laundry room, games room —upstairs 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms House — full of antique fur-niture — rooms decorated classical styleConclusion: May sound like a dream — will be realityCompositionThere is a house in another part of my home town that I would love to own. It is called the "White House", like the President's house in Washington! I think you could easily describe it as a "mansion" and it is magnificent. I have no idea how much it is worth, but that doesn't worry me. I admire the house and have always admired it.I do not have to imagine what the house is like inside because I have, strange as it may seem, actually been inside. About three years ago the owner held an exhibition of sculptures and paintings in the house. The exhibits were distributed throughtout the house so that allthe visitors had a chance to see the house.When you go in through the large heavy green front door, you find yourself in a large entrance hall with a shining black and white marble floor, rooms leading off from it in all directions, and a large open staircase leading up to the first floor. There is a large dining roomon the right and a large sitting room on the left. Both rooms have big windows that look out onto the front lawn. There are always pea-cocks on the front lawn, and there are two large oak trees where you can sit in the shade on hot summer days.At the back of the house is a large kitchen, a laundry and work room and a games room. Upstairs there are six bedrooms and fourbathrooms. I think there are four bathrooms, but I can't quite remember.The house is full of beautiful antique furniture and all the rooms are decorated in a classical style — lots of light blue and light green paint with white doors, and quite a lot of gold decoration. ?. The whole thing may sound like a dream, but one day it will be reality. One day I will own my ideal house. (332 words)Lesson 58 A spot of botherKey to CompositionA possible answerPlan and ideas far composition (b)Title: My first visit to the UKIntroduction: Nothing like first visit abroad —what to expect? —new language, new culture —everything new and strange.Development: 3 years ago — UK — arrival at airport — experiencesLanded at Heathrow — met by rep of Al English Language School — taken to accommodation —j small English family — at first everything strange — after 3-4 days began to enjoy staySo many things to learn in England — example — asking way to "Albert Hall" - "the Albert Hall" Conclusion: Foreign travel — impossible to overestimate value — also helps understand foreign visitors to our countryComposition'There is nothing like your first visit to a foreign country. Whatever you may have heard, or whatever you have read or seen, you still don’t really know what to expect. You will hear and read a new language, you will be surrounded by a completely different culture, and everything will seem new and strange.My first visit abroad was three years ago when I went to the UK. I had booked to attend a short English language course in London with a friend of mine. After a very long flight, we landed at Heathrow Airport and were met by a representative of the Al English Lan-guage School. She welcomed us and took us to accommodation. We were staying with a small English family. At first everything was so strange—the food, the furniture in their home and the way they live, everything! But after three or four days we both began to enjoy our stay, and of course, we made lots of friends at the school, which was only half a mile away.There are so many things to learn when you are in England. For example, one day my friend and I were sightseeing in London and stopped to ask en Englishman the way."Excuse me, " I said. "Where is Albert Hall?" I thought my English was just right.'Oh, " he said, "you mean the Albert Hall!" "Yes, " I said, "where is the Albert Hall?"He then explained how to get to the Albert Hall, but I didn't realize the word "the" was so important in English! It is impossible to overestimate what you get from foreign travel. Going to the UK made me realize how small the world is, at i me see how important travel is, and it helped me to understand what foreign visitors feel like when they visit China for the first time.(317 words]Lesson 59 CollectingKey to CompositionA possible answerPlan and ideas for composition (b)Title: The knock on the windowIntroduction: There was a knock on the window — hardly noticeable—branch on oak tree? Development: House stands on own — countryside — lonely — few neighbours — don't see each other Heard blowing of wind — noise of traffic from main roadConclusion: Looked oat — no one there — came back in — knock on window—louder — heart pounding—lane . . .CompanionThere was a knock on the window. At first it was hardly noticeable, almost as if a branch on the large oak tree outs,against the window. It was repeated, and then there was silence. , I got up and looked out of the window. I couldn't see anybody and my dog hadn't started barking. It was mid-afternoon, atx o'clock and I had been listening to the radio and reading a book. The house stands on its own, down the end of a long lane in the 1. at the countryside, so it is very lonely. I have few neighbours, but the neighbours I have are very good, even though we don't see other very often.I had got so nervous recently that I had to summon up enough courage to unlock the front door and go outside. There was no one there. True, there was e light breeze and the wind was shaking the branches of the oak tree, but me only other sound was the noise of the traffic on the mainroad a mile away. For one moment I thought I saw someone hiding behind the fence, but nothing moved, so I thought I must be wrong.I came back in and settled down by the fire with my book. Then there was a knock on the window, this time louder. It was a real knock with a human hand, no doubt about it—well, certainly not the branch of a tree— and my heart started pounding. I looked up andthere, outside the window, was the little girl from down the lane. Her mother had sent her down to see if I was all right, and she had decided to play a trick on me. (292 words)Lesson 60 Too early and too lateKey to CompositionA possible answerPlan and ideas for composition(c)Title: A piece of paperIntroduction: Piece of paper — blowing in wind — not large i— drop into water? — looked very light — tissue / toilet paper?Development: Finished sandwiches — set off back to office — not looking forward to-afternoon.Piece of paper flew up again — noticed writing on it — flew away — dropped down — wind took it againRan after it once more — landed in front of meConclusion: Lottery ticket — took it home — won ?50!CompositionA piece of paper was blowing in the wind. When I saw it, I was sitting in the park eating my sandwiches. It was floating across the surface of the park lake, not large, about half the size of a postcard, and I wondered when it would drop into the water. But it didn't. As it got near to the surface, it rose again and the wind took it over the bank towards some trees. Even then I thought that it looked very light —perhaps tissue paper or toilet paper, maybe —because it almost fluttered, like a butterfly. But then again, perhaps it wasn't Perhaps it was just ordinary paper that had got a bit wet.I finished my sandwiches, threw my waste paper into the bin nearby and set off back towards the trees and my office. I was not look-ing forward to the afternoon. As I walked round the edge of the lake, the piece of paper flew up again in front of me. It began to anno] me, and intrigue me —because when it flew up, I noticed that it was pink with some writing on it- It flew away and I chased it. I dropped down and I had nearly reached it when the wind took it again. I ran after it once more and it landed again some metres in front of me.I finally caught up with it and put my foot on it to stop it flying away again. This time I held it firmly with my foot until I could lean down and pick it up. I looked at it and realized what it was: a lottery ticket — 8 little wet, and one comer was torn, but it was a lottery ticket. I could see that the date on it was about six weeks before. It was probably worth nothing, but I decided to take it home and dry it.It was worth something! When I checked the numbers with the winning numbers six weeks before, I had four the same. The "piece of paper" was worth ? 50! (334 words)。

Her shopping had tired her and her basket had grown heavier with every step of the way home. In the lift her thoughts were on lunch and a good rest; but when she got out at her own floor, both were forgotten in her sudden discovery that her front door was open. She was thinking that she must reprimand her home help the next morning for such a monstrous piece of negligence, when she remembered that she had gone shopping after the home help had left and she knew that she had turned both keys in their locks, She walked slowly into the hall and at once noticed that all the room doors were open, yet following her regular practice she had shut them before going out. Looking into the drawing room, she saw a scene of confusion over by her writing desk. It was as clear as daylight then that burglars had forced an entry during her absence. Her first impulse was to go round all the rooms looking for the thieves, but then she decided that at her age it might be more prudent to have someone with her, so she went to fetch the porter from his basement. By this time her legs were beginning to tremble, so she sat down and accepted a cup of very strong tea, while he telephoned the police. Then, her composure regained, she was ready to set off with the porter's assistance to search for any intruders who might still be lurking in her flat. They went through the rooms, being careful to touch nothing, as they did not want to hinder the police in their search for fingerprints. The chaos was inconceivable. She had lived in the flat for thirty years and was a veritable magpie at hoarding; and it seemed as though everything she possessed had been tossed out and turned over and over. At least sorting out the things she should have discarded years ago was now being made easier for her. Then a police inspector arrived with a constable and she told them of her discovery of the ransacked flat. The inspector began to look for fingerprints, while the constable checked that the front door locks had not been forced, thereby proving that the burglars had either used skeleton keys or entered over the balcony. There was no trace of fingerprints, but the inspector found a dirty red bundle that contained jewellery which the old lady said was not hers. So their entry into this flat was apparently not the burglars' first job that day and they must have been disturbed. The inspector then asked the old lady to try to check what was missing by the next day and advised her not to stay alone in the flat for a few nights. The old lady thought he was a fussy creature, but since the porter agreed with him, she rang up her daughter and asked for her help in what she described as a little spot of bother. 【课⽂翻译】⽼妇⼈回到了她居住的公寓楼，⼼⾥很⾼兴。

新概念英语第三册课文及翻译5

新概念英语第三册课文及翻译5课文内容新概念英语第三册课文及翻译5是一篇约800字的文章，内容如下："In the wild north-west of Canada, there are no roads. Here separate towns and villages are hundreds of miles apart. Travellers cross the wide rivers and lakes by canoe or 'plane, but between the settlements, the simplest and quickest way to get about is on foot. A journey made on foot through this wilderness is called a 'hike'.One bright summer's morning I began a hike which was to take me through a vast forest to some distant lakes. I carried a rucksack with clothes, a light tent, and some tinned food. In the early morning the weather was fine, but by noon it was extremely hot, for there was no shade where the tall trees grew close together. In the afternoon I came to a wide swift river. It had been raining in the mountains and the river was swollen. A bridge had been built across it, but the water had risen aboveit and it was almost covered by the swift current. I had no wish to risk my life, so I unpacked my inflatable rubber boat and inflated it with my foot-pump. I tied my rucksack to the front of the boat and then swam and paddled my way to the other side."翻译"在加拿大的荒野西北部，没有公路。
